04 September - Saint Teresa Canonisation Day in Albania

 


Saint Teresa, also known as Mother Teresa, was canonized as a saint by the Roman Catholic Church on September 4, 2016. Therefore, her canonization day is celebrated annually on September 4th. This date marks the official recognition by the Catholic Church of her holiness and her contributions to society through her selfless work with the poor and marginalized.

Mother Teresa, born Anjezë Gonxhe Bojaxhiu in Skopje, which is now part of North Macedonia but was part of the wider Albanian region during her birth, dedicated her life to serving the destitute and sick in the slums of Kolkata (Calcutta), India. Her canonization was a significant event in the Catholic Church and was celebrated by Catholics worldwide.

On Saint Teresa's canonization day, various events and ceremonies are held in her honor, including special Masses, prayers, and charitable activities. It is a day to reflect on her legacy of compassion and selflessness, as well as to encourage people to follow her example of helping those in need.
